「… Ueee… What is this… It’s weird…」

As I passed through the rainbow-colored barrier, I felt strange sensations. It’s as if my brain is being forced to spin around in circles, up and down, back and forth, left and right… No, I don’t even know what I’m talking about for a second. In short, it’s so weird that it’s driving me crazy…

In case you’re wondering, the new skill, 《Denjin》, was just completed today. I can’t use 《Raijin》 because it has been merged with 《Metal Counterattack》 to become 《Thunder・Metal Counterattack》. So why don’t I just use 《Thunder・Metal Counterattack》? Unfortunately, it was just used and has a very long cool down time of seven days in real time. So I wanted a skill to connect the two, even if it’s a weakened version of that.

This is the original 《Thunder・Metal Counterattack》. When I modified this, it became the 《Denjin》.

【Name】 [Discharge] Consumption: 1 electric ball

【Description】 A skill said to have been used by the Voltaire tribe that once existed. This power was given to them by their creator god, the Dragon God, but because it was far more powerful than ordinary thunder, the Voltaire were buried in darkness as enemies of mankind. However, this power is not far from [Thunder].

What do you think? For me, I think it’s excellent for everyday use. Merlin and I developed this skill together, so I’m glad to be able to use it as soon as possible. Eh? Furin? She kept looking at me with envious eyes, but she didn’t interrupt us…

「… Uwa… Too…… !」

──Dosun!!

Just when I thought the weirdness had subsided, a wall appeared in front of me and I guarded myself as quickly as I could.

「Eh… ? Floor… ?」

Apparently it was the floor I hit, not the wall. I stood up, brushed the dust off my clothes and looked around.

「………. Cage… ?」

I was in a cage. I could feel my blood pumping. I looked at the door of the cage and saw that it was slightly open.

「… Good… But why is it empty anyway?」

I glance out before getting out of the cage. No one is there.

「… Aya. Wait for me」

──Badjidjidjidjidjidji!!!

When I run, I run faster than athletes. Maybe if I were in the Olympics I would win a gold medal. I was just running around at that speed when I came to the front of a room that was noisy with thumps and bangs.

When I got to the front of the room, the room went quiet, so I looked through a small opening and saw Aya, my beloved, frail Aya, whom I had been searching for, about to be attacked by a horse bone.

「───That’s enough!」

「… Suzu…… I wanted to see you───」

「──I’m the only one allowed to touch her!!」

「──I thought that was the case, but maybe not…」

My wife, whom I finally met. I think I’ll have to retire the horse bone here… Fufufu…
